It’s easter again, and Nick’s mom sent me another delivery!
And yet again that obnoxious bunny reappears out of nowhere.
Another year another easter

Bunnies
Peep and I finally come to an understanding.
“Look, I’m busy. You should annoy someone else,” I tell him.
“Peep,” says Peep. Ulgh. He disappears. Well at least he did that.
Annnnnd I haven’t seen him in months. Life is great.
Then COVID-19 happened. We go into quarantine. No more travel. Indefinitely. Also Pokin’s sister and husband move in with us.
To stay sane, my bud and I, and the rest of the family go on nightly walks, where we’ve been noticing a LOT of baby bunnies trying to survive out in the wild.
Not my problem! I think, as we continue our walks.
Then came Pokin’s birthday.
“We got you a surprise,” Pokin’s sister says to her. “We’d been seeing so many bunnies on our walks, we thought about pets! And so we got you something! “Close your eyes and hold out your hand.”
Pokin closes her eyes. I close my eyes. A wave of trepidation comes over me.
We open our eyes. OMG there is bunny on her hand.
“We thought you’d like him! Surprise!” PoOn said.
They got her a bunny. Another bunny.
We’re under quarantine right now! Don’t they know that?! Who knows where this bunny has been!! He’s not even wearing a mask!
I take this bunny out for a talk. I put on my mask. Gotta stay safe after all.
“Look pal, we follow social distancing rules around here. In other words, stay far away from me.”
The new bunny stares at me.
In silence.
I stare back.
Oh boy.
It gets worse.
PEEP! ARGH!
This quarantine is really testing me. I’m surrounded by a bunnies. They’ve grown in quantity. And size.
And I’m locked down in this house. Somebody help me.
Maybe it’s time to think about my hibearnating options.
Operation : Rescue that bunny from himself
Shortly after we arrived to Hong Kong, Peep disappeared. I didn’t pay much attention to that, and assumed he was off hunting for coffee.
I guess I started getting worried after a few months had passed. One day I happened to look up and found out that, for some unbeknownst reason, the ridiculous bunny had decided to dangle himself off the ceiling beams.
I eventually realized that the bunny was trying to do a leap of faith into the coffee pot below, but naturally, didn’t think through the logistics before he got himself all tangled up there.
Well he wasn’t bothering anyone up there…so I left him there.
Today we are finally leaving Hong Kong. So I (reluctantly) told Nicholas that we better rescue the bunny.
“You ready to come down now Peep?” I ask.
“Peep.” said Peep.
That crazy bunny still wants to do a leap of faith.
“You realize leaps of faith are for experts? Not everyone can master the jump.” I caution.
“Peep” said Peep.
I sigh. “Fine, let the bunny do what he wants.”
“1 – 2 — ”
Peep falls to the ground and promptly faceplants himself.
Sigh. I still don’t know what to do with that bunny.
At least he recovered enough to still have a go at the coffee.
